Default fat bob right side footpeg

any cheap reasonable quick fix or otherwise to the rather bad foot placement on the right side partially due to the air breather jutting out so far to where your/my knee is laying against it while tryin to remain firmly planted on the foot peg?does s&s make a breather assembly that is slimmer and takes up less leg room. sorta refering to the stealth tear drop breather. any and all help is appreciated!!!!!!

Don't know about S&S, but DK Customs has some low profile units. I have a 587on mine, with a plain round cover and have no problems with leg room.

Fat bob: S&S stealth teardrop with Biltwell punisher pegs. I'm 6'1. No trouble at all with foot placement and my foot stays put on that peg at any speed this bike will do. The pegs are just about my fav upgrade.
The S&S breather is great, but costly. Fairly low profile. However.... their idea of a rain sock for this breather is not very good if that matters.

I bought chromed 5/8" spacers and longer bolts from the hardware store. This worked to space out the controls on both sides. Double check fitment of your brake actuator rod with your pipe, this may be a -$20 solution for your problem.
